The receiver must have an unmolested opportunity to catch the football. There's is no distance or halo.

You on't say if he caught the ball or not. Once he catches it, it's poerfectly legal to hit him. That's why we have the fair catch rule. If he chooses not to FC it, oh well.

The enforcement was correct. It's an awarded FC at the spot or mark off 15 and re-kick.
